Cancelo and Lamine, dribble masters

The duo are both in the La Liga Top 3 for percentage dribble completion counting players who have made 50 or more attempts

João Cancelo and Lamine Yamal are two players who are in no way afraid to take a run at opponents. In fact, the Barça duo rank first and third for percentage completed dribbles in La Liga, only counting players who have made 50 or more attempts. The Portuguese full back has completed 38 of his 61 attempts (62.3%), while Lamine has completed 40 of his 67 attempts (59.7%).

Both are in their first seasons with the Barça first team, and the latter is still only 16 years old. Things are nicely set up for a promising future at the club.

Only Luis Rioja of Alavés is able to prevent a Barça one-two at the top, while the rest of the top ten is made up of Jude Bellingham, Álex Sola, Isco, Gerard Moreno, Jørgen Strand Larsen, Javi Guerra and Mason Greenwood.

Top ten in Europe's Big Five leagues

If also including the English Premier League, French Ligue 1, Italian Serie A and German Bundesliga, João Cancelo is in fourth, topped only by Bruno Guimarães, John McGinn and Ross Barkley, while Lamine Yamal ranks seventh.
